      It may have occurred during the exodus, where users from dbzer0 told db0 and unruffled, two techbros, that AI is not anarchist. Instead of relenting, the admins argued, and so many users left. It was during this time that many new dbzer0 accounts were created in support of db0’s views on AI, and these new users are supposedly tankie alts.

      now of course this is purely hearsay. I wasn’t online during this drama and only heard about it from a few users who DMed me.

      regardless i do find the GenAI usage a bit weird for an anarchist instance. like, you’re giving fuel to one of the biggest rorts in history, fuelling billionaires and their technocracy.

        Anarchists using GenAI seems paradoxal to me. GenAI in most cases wastes electricity and the corporate ones don’t even run on renewable energy. Additionally, GenAI creates problems with misinformation as many people cannot even recognize what is artificial and what is not. It serves as a tool for authoritarian minded individuals.

          They use GenAI because they believe it removes hierarchy. Everyone can now create art.
